GOODMANCharles GOODMAN was born in Manchester in about 1860. His father was Joseph GOODMAN. His first marriage was to Eleanor Lytton HAND at Llandudno in 1882. On the certificate his father is described as a Gentleman. Charles is described as "A gent" or "Agent" - difficult to tell. His son, Hubert GOODMAN, was born in Southport in 1884. Charles became a dentist and in the late 19th century lived in Northampton. Eleanor died in in 1886 and Charles married again in 1909 to Emily Ethel DAVIES in Portsmouth. He then lived and practised dentistry in Portsmouth until his death. I have hit a brick wall with Charles's earlier life and details of his parents. Any help would be appreciated.
